About me
I’m an experienced Clinical Psychologist (HCPC-registered) supporting adults, couples and families facing the effects of trauma and PTSD, anxiety and low mood, burnout and work stress, addictions, low self-esteem, and relationship difficulties.
When life feels overwhelming or stuck, it helps to have someone alongside you who can sit with painful emotions and guide you through them safely. I integrate EMDR, Schema Therapy, CBT, DBT and Family Therapy, tailoring our work to what you need at each stage to hep create meaningful and lasting change.
Therapy sessions with me focus on making sense of your experiences, healing the impact of the past, meeting your emotional needs, and building practical skills that support the life you want. Together, we’ll understand patterns in your life, process what’s been overwhelming, and strengthen the resources to help you move forward.
My approach is trauma-informed, neuro-affirming, and welcoming of LGBTQ+ and culturally diverse clients.
